[Downgrade][S-ON] Downgrade by flashing older version of official RUU - HTC U11+ Guides, News, & Discussion

Get the method from here:
https://bbs.htc.com/cn/thread-109059-1-1.html
----------
This method seems to modify the original system version number so that the old version of the RUU file can pass the checking.
--------------------
Backup your data before downgrading.
--------------------
1. Download the RUU file which is the version you need.
2. Reboot to download mode, then flash the TWRP via fastboot.
Unofficial TWRP for U11+: https://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-u11/development/unofficial-htc-u11-twrp-recovery-t3706264
Fastboot command:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
3. Reboot to recovery mode, then get sde1 file by :
adb pull /dev/block/sde1
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
4. Open the file with a text editor and change the version number, which is easy to found, to the version number of your RUU file.
5. Push back the file by
adb push sde1 /dev/block
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
If it shows "does not have enough space", delete the original file by the files manager in the recovery first.
6. Flash your RUU file by entering into the download mode after copying it to the SD card.
Tested on U11+ China version, no problems found.
Hope this can help you.

You don't need to relock bootloader, but you have to get stock recovery.

Tested. Ok on HTC__621 taiwan device.

Thanks for the guide. Does it work if you swiped to "allow system modification" in twrp?

HTC U11 Plus is base on android oreo.
I think you can flash ruu normally.
You can flash older version of RUU follow software number and it's same version android.
If you want to rollback from new version android ,this method is important.
Ex RUU 1.xx.400.x Android 8.0
Your devices is software number 1.24.400.x ,Android 8.0
You can use Ruu above for flash your device.

Of course, why I would find this method is to restore the modified system partition.

hi Sotong rom India_SEA 1.10.400.23 for what is CID?

Hey Guys, would this procedure work if i would like to return the phone to stock with custom rom??
By the way, is it possible to pull the sde1 without flashing the trwp recovery image?
I have tried to pull the file with the following steps and it is a success but not sure if the file is okay:
adb root
adb pull /dev/block/sde1
I can see the version number in the file with notepad++
Please advise. thanks.

How do you relock your bootloader???
I managed to flash to stock but the bootloader remain unlock.
Please help.

Hi all,
Managed to get reload the stock rom and re-lock the bootloader.
Thanks.

Do I need TWRP and SD card?
Can I just use fastoot/adb and flash from PC directly?
Also what images are needed? I only have boot system and recovery stock images. Is that good enough?

Its easy, it requires ADB drivers instaled in PC and ADB commands to execute.
So, in TWRP you make a full WIPE, format data also.
Then you reboot recovery and over advanced you activate adb sideload.
Then connect phone to PC and send the zip file with command:
adb sideload name_of_the_rom.zip
Then just wait ADB send file to phone and then Recovery start flash of ROM .

With TWRP it works, i tested, other Recovery i dont know if they have sideload option.
Relative to OTA yes, with stock recovery you can have OTA. But i dont have stock recovery from this one since dump dont contain firmware.zip
Dont know if firmware.zip from 2.24.709.1 it will do the trick, but sincerelly i dont wait from OTA updates, its a loss of time

Thats correct, i did not know Mike already put the firmware zip, thanks for tell me in
Another thing, you must unlock bootloader to flash TWRP.
If needed you can have S-OFF and flash latest RUU x.xx.401.x and you are good to GO.
Cheers
Would this work with T-Mobile/AT&T versions?
Also sideloading doesn't touch the "sdcard" content right. We would just need to do a factory reset.

Correct, it work all models EXCEPT SPRINT.
Sideload dont touch anything over sdcard but if you are in 4.1.2 base a wipe data / factory reset and a format sdcard its advised....

According to your bootloader details you are at a good starting point. Here is what I recommend you do from here:
1. Download a custom recovery like TWRP:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2558503
2. flash this in bootloader mode. If you don't know how here is the help thread you need to read through:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2593382
3. Once you have a custom recovery installed, you can flash SuperSu or other root app (google is your friend.)
4. Stick with the rooted rom you have or flash another of your choosing.

Why are you using a toolkit to flash recovery???
Just download from http://goo.im/devs/OpenRecovery/evita
or download the unofficial TWRP from the original android dev section if you plan on flashing an AOSP or CM based Rom and then fastboot flash recovery recovery_filename.img
Easy peasy. Too many links is an error that should have nothing to do with flashing recovery...

You need to type the filename of the recovery file you download. Either the recovery filename you are typing is wrong or the file is not in the folder you are trying to flash from.

Please help: How to return htc u11 to stock

Hi guys,
My phone now is on LeeDroid custom ROM (Build 1.03.401.6.9_g CL923215)
What are the steps to return the htc u11 to stock please?
The original software number of my phone is: 1.11.400.4
EDIT: I went to: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=72425224&postcount=5
& downloaded stock recovery & nandroid TWRP backup (for 1.11.400.4).
However, I couldnt flash that nandroid TWRP from TWRP recovery.
Long story short, I just got the phone today, I made a big mistake by not inserting the simcard in & testing to see if the phone working or not.
So, I went straight through the process of unlocking bootloader, installing TWRP, Rooting, Installing custom ROM without making a nandroid backup.
For all that, the phone did not recognize the sim cards (tried both my sim & my gf's sim. not working)
The store will take back the phone as long as I return it to stock.
Thanks for your help!!!

Restore the TWRP backup, check everything is working, then flash stock recovery if you need to. The stock Nandroid should include recovery asfaik. I'm more of a trial and error guy lol. Read guide pages to know for certain, check HTC 10 guides, same steps.

Your going to need a full signed RUU zip matching your original firmware and CID buddy.
Based on your original build number its an Indian dual SIM device so here is the ruu:
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=817550096634780026
1. Rename it to 2PZCIMG.zip
2. Lock your bootloader
3. Drop the zip on your external SD card.
3. Boot to download mode, at that point you will be prompted to flash... Accept... Profit.
If you don't have an external SD.
1. Lock your bootloader.
2. Boot to download mode.
3. Open a cmd window and run the below commands.
fastboot orm rebootRUU (hit enter)
fastboot flash zip (drag the zip into the cmd window then hit enter)

On the PC side, what was the exact error message?
you can ignore the warning from the phone side.
I had a similar issue the other day, but then I was able to run the RUU upgrade to rest my phone back to stock as I had to ship it back for a refund, to get the new Red ones
When I ran the RUU thing it wouldn't detect the phone, did a few things, and then it was finally able to detect the phone.
and when it started updating the Boot image it hung for a long while, I had to restart the phone back into download mode, then run the RUU again, and it was able to continue from there.

The 1.03.401.6 may be European software. You will need the RUU for your exact phone model from: http://www.htc.com/us/support/updates.aspx

I have the ext. sdcard ready.
I have a question about locking the bootloader please
To lock the bootloader, I have to do this? (found instruction from google)
adb reboot bootloader
& type in 1 of these commands & stop there if it works?
fastboot oem lock
fastboot flashing lock
fastboot oem relock
Please advice

[How-to][ruu] Flash ruu.zip to factory

If you have some problem with your phone like me (Settings app fc always) you can download your RUU.zip and flash it.
If your bootloader unloced no problem no need to relock.
Go to download mode and type:
Code:
fastboot oem rebootRUU
Now your booted to the black HTC screen. Make sure your Rom.zip file is in your adb/fastboot folder
Code:
htc_fastboot flash zip Rom.zip
This takes a couple minutes and you will most likely get a error (pre-hboot update: please flush immediately) and maybe your phone reboot sometimes.
Make sure device is still in ruu mode(black HTC screen).
Let it run and it should finish this time
After completed :
Code:
fastboot reboot
It will reboot to a fully stock build.
Just remember, anytime you get a "flush immediately" error, just make sure your still in ruu mode and reflash the zip.
The most common error is typically :
FAILED (remote: 90 hboot pre-update! please flush image again immediately )
Enjoy your stock phone again.

Yes i tried and worked every time for me!
You can't make a downgrade with out S-OFF!!!
(I'm not using HTC anymore but this process still working)
HTC Fastboot in 2nd post. You only need paste to fastboot and adb folder.
If you want to decrypt RUU you can use : HTC RUU Decrypt tool . You will got a system.img, boot.img, recovery.img etc...
HTC Fastboot exe : https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=95916177934550031
Thank you. I was wondering how to flashing the zips.
Thanks OP.
I want to extract the stock boot and recovery from RUU but it appears the format of RUU provided here is different from the others.
Is it still possible to extract them?
And could this RUU rename to 2Q4DIMG.zip and place to sdcard and flash from device with download mode?

If y want to decrypt the RUU y need this : HTC RUU Decrypt tool
You can decrypt the ruu file and y can find the system.img, boot.img, recovery.img.
I think you can place to sdcard but i didn't try this.

Hi, I flashed the firmware from the microsd (fimware 1.10.400.23). As with htc 11 normal model, just rename the firmware file corresponding to the phone model in 2Q4DIMG.zip, put it in the sd card, start htc u11 plus in download mode and it's done. There is no need to have unlocked bootloader.

I tried to downgrade from 1.24.401.2 to 1.10.401.23 with the SD-card method (non root) because of wakelocks and the low percentage of Deep Sleep of screen time off (confirmed today by HTC Nordic today and that HTC are working on a new update. The support person didn't know any ETA).
Everything seems okay underway when flashing but after boot and finishing the setup procedure, Wifi, Google account etc. I'm still on 1.24.401.2. I used the 1.10.401.23 in the first post.
Have anyone else tried to downgrade with non root?

My HK model got an update today to 1.24.400.03 and devcheck is reporting 61% deep sleep.
I have had almost none since the update from 1.10 to 1.24.400.01. the .03 update seems to have solved this.

Downgrade has nothing to do with root. You have to be S-off.

Return to stock & re-lock bootloader: HOW?

Hello,
I recently unlocked the bootloader and installed TWRP as custom recovery, but I'm now in need to return full-stock:
could anyone please tell me (or link me - I searched but I didn't found anything about it) a full procedure to restore the phone status?
I need a stock ROM, I guess, but then what? Flash it in TWRP? Does it also include stock recovery or is it a separate file instead?
Thank you very much!

so you do know that relocking the bootloader will cause a factory reset and all data will be wiped from device.
First, all you need to do is download a full rom update and flash in system local update. that will put stock software and stock recovery back.
second, Reboot phone to bootloader mode. Then you just type in cmd "fastboot oem lock"

Thanks for your fast answer!
So is it better to flash stock ROM through local update than through TWRP? Or it's the same procedure both ways?
Thanks again!
They both will work.

These tools will return your phone to 100% stock.
I've use them multiple times.
I recommend using these qualcomm drivers.
